A Chinese operator in the Sichuan Basin used high‑frequency pressure monitoring to evaluate frac performance in unconventional wells.
Hydraulic fracturing holds great potential in the region, but there are several key questions worth asking as efforts move forward.
This paper describes the evolution of the operator’s initial PWC (perforate, wash, and cement) abandonment projects performed in deepwater Brazil.

The authors of this paper describe the development of a continuous monitoring solution throughout its deployment.

Moving into 2023, perhaps it will be safe to say that the era of the low-carbon energy mix has begun as the primary energy production landscape is changing fast. Until now, fossils fuels have dominated, and may still for the next few years dominate, the energy mix; however, a shift is taking place that will gain momentum, driven by global efforts toward addressing cli…

The authors of this paper describe a software technology that balances calculated well-integrity risk with the associated financial impact for an entire integrity-surveillance program.
-
The authors of this paper investigate the risk of containment loss for a leaking well using a 1-sq-mile section of the Denver-Julesburg Basin.
-
This study evaluates well integrity and CO2-leakage risk in wells penetrating a CO2 storage reservoir in Malaysia.
-
ProPetro will provide committed services for a 3-year period to an undisclosed Permian Basin operator.
-
This paper presents field cases of a rigless wireline logging technique that accurately locates sources of water production in cased wells with standalone sand screens in an offshore field in the Caspian Sea.
-
This paper presents a numerical simulation work flow, with emphasis on hydraulic fracture simulation, that optimizes well spacing and completion design simultaneously.
